Dawn...

I got the apples at Kroger's last night. They had them on sale for $1.97 for 5 lb bags. That was a great buy on them. I think the cheapest I have found them at before was $0.99/lb. They are gala's which dehydrate nicely. So...do I do them in just cinnamon or cinnamon & splenda? Oh..I got 5 bags which should make up a nice size bag of apple crisps. Call me or text me and let me know...k?

I guess I was meant to see this as you wrote it, lol!

I am never UP this early, on my day off- usually if I am UP this early it is because I closed and hadn't went to bed yet, lol!!!!

Anyway, thanks so much for this she will be so surprised! The apples she had before were the leftover batch from the fundraiser for Maggie, so probably the splenda, I am not sure, do you remember which you done for that event?Let me know whichever and the cost ok, I will have to find out Halima's schedule so that I can drop them off to her! They are making some changes at that store!How long does it take to make these? Let me know the plan for picking them up! I will try and check back later, as I am NOT staying up!!! I do have some workbooks to finish up for my class Friday morning and should be asleep or working on them!!!

Anyway, hope you have a great day and I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU SOON!

THANKS AGAIN!!!!    

Dawn,

It looks like the server gods here at work today like me enough to let me reply to you. I THINK I brought ones with Splenda & Cinnamon on them. Usually, I did the Cinnamon only just for Gail since she can't do sweetners. I will probably have them all done by Sunday. I doubt I start preparing the apples until Friday. I just don't do a heck of a lot on a work night. Those 2-3 hours after I get home & before I go to bed fly by quick.

Are you off on Sunday? Maybe we could meet for dinner? The oriental restaurant on PenPike where we went before is back open and on Sundays, they'd have crab legs on the buffet. Sound good?

funny you posted this. wife got some apples and i just asked her last night wondering if i could eat one of them after i peeled it and cut into small bites...Had the RNY 070609 and didnt know if too soon to try to eat or not?

I think I saw where you were a St. V's post-op...right? If so, check on their allowable list for your stage. If you are through someone who didn't give you a list of what you can have when, I'd hold off on fruits until ~3 months post-op...and even longer for high citric ones (oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes) since acidity can cause ulcers. If applesauce is ok...but 'fruits' aren't on the ok list, I would proceed cautiously. Myself, I don't like applesauce so I'd chew the heck out of it till my stomach would think I did have applesauce. That, or bake/nuke it with a little bit of cinnamon & splenda and have baked apple. Of course, no peel for either way.

And of course as always, if in doubt, contact your nut or surgeons nurse.
